"Habit is the thing that gets in the way of change" Walter Carrington
The Alexander Technique is a method for changing reaction; improving use of the self, co-ordination, and indirectly, functioning. The teacher gives the student experiential re-education to change awareness and habits by using his/her hands to guide the student through movement.
The Alexander Technique was developed by F.M. Alexander in late 19th century Australia. F.M. was an actor who discovered that his vocal problems were caused by the way he used himself. His technique stemmed from his successful efforts to change his habits. He taught the Technique in England from before World War I and later in the U.S. and England. Today the Alexander Technique is taught all over the world.
Study of the Alexander Technique is not limited to performers. Anyone can learn and benefit from the skills taught by F.M. Alexander.
I am certified as an Alexander Technique teacher by the American Society for the Alexander Technique.
I am available to teach private lessons, group classes, and workshops. Please contact me for rates and availability.
I look forward to hearing from you!
